[Strapi](https://strapi.io/) is the leading open-source headless CMS. It's 100% JavaScript, fully customizable and developer-first.

This integration allows business users to build personalized digital experiences (web sites, web apps, mobile apps, etc.) by re-purposing content from your Strapi content management system. It also enables developers to use their preferred front-end tools to build these applications.

This section provides guides on how to use Uniform with Strapi.

## Add Uniform integration

Adding the Strapi integration to your Uniform project
adds new parameter types that you can add to your Uniform
Canvas components.

You must have access to a Uniform team with the ability to create new projects. If you are an active customer or a partner, please get in touch with your Uniform team administrator colleague and ask for an invite.

If you are not sure or your company does not have a Uniform team, you can request a sandbox [here](https://uniform.dev/try?utm_source=docs).
